From bands like Spiritbox to the biggest names on today’s heavy playlists, one thing is clear: synths are the secret ingredient that takes modern metal beyond its traditional roots.

In this course, Australian producer Dr. Mike Trubetskov dives deep into the world of synths in modern metal production. You’ll learn how to integrate a wide range of synth sounds into your tracks—from massive layers that double your guitar riffs, to ethereal pads, cinematic atmospheres, and aggressive leads that cut through the mix.
